Doubtless that is not the mentality of Sarina Wiegman’s Euro 2022 champions, who narrowly lost a World Cup final against Spain last summer and now turn their attentions to the defence of their European crown.

This evening’s opening Group A3 qualifier against Sweden begins a journey that will potentially end in Basel on 27 July next year, but Wiegman’s players will not be getting ahead of themselves. They are grouped with France and the Republic of Ireland along with the Swedes, with qualification far from a foregone conclusion, so the imminent return of the captain Leah Williamson is a welcome boost.

important events
There are only eight minutes left until kickoff. Wembley is packed. A pregame light show with music and fireworks began.
Wiegmann was asked how England plan to stop Sweden.
“How are they going to stop us?” she asked. It’s the spirit.

in a pre-recorded interview ITV’s Sarina Wiegman said not hosting the Olympics would mean England could focus entirely on the Euros.
On signing a contract until 2027, she said: I really enjoy working with my colleagues and players, and I think I can improve even more…I have a dream. ”
According to the UEFA websiteIn England, Stanway will play on the right side of midfield, with Hemp positioned to the right of the front three.
“I’m hoping for a good game tonight too.‘ Gordon receives an email.
“Re: The qualifier setup may be complicated, but it will no longer be a team of full-time professional players slamming minnows, which no one was interested in.
“Re: England vs Sweden, England’s team looks unbalanced – who will play on the right?” – and Fridrina Rolfo could terrorize the lionesses on that side . ”
That’s a great point about the qualifying structure. Aleksander Ceferin, if you’re reading this, I’m sorry for taking out the mickey.

Jess Park He took center stage for Manchester City as he glided across the Etihad Stadium’s turf during last month’s derby. A fascinated Sarina Wiegman looked on, the camera occasionally panning to the delighted English manager in the stands.
As a lifelong City fan, I couldn’t help but be impressed as Park produced one of the performances of the season. She scored two goals and provided one assist, with her dominant performances both on and off the ball in midfield and was the catalyst for the hosts’ victory.
Sarina Wigman Leah Williamson said this week that she would be the team’s captain if she started tonight. But she’s on the bench, so Keira Walsh is captain.
The only changes from England’s friendly win against Italy were Lauren James joining the squad and Chloe Kelly dropping to the bench.

When I stood at Stadium Australia After the final whistle in Sydney last August, as I reflected on England’s World Cup final defeat, I couldn’t help but think that this was our only chance to conquer the world and add that bright star to our kit. Ta. People told me, “Don’t get too discouraged, you’ll get another chance in four years.” Of course, in soccer there’s always another chance. The Lionesses have a world-class coach in Sarina Wigman and an exciting mix of experience and youth. But watching Spain lift the trophy made me realize that this is a team and an elite system that can dominate world football for the next 10 years.
As mentioned in the preamble, England are not getting ahead of themselves. That said, Lucy Bronze believes winning back-to-back European Championships would be a “next level” achievement.
How will qualification for Women’s Euro 2025 be determined?
Simply put, if a group starts with “A”, the top two places guarantee a spot. However, if he is one of the lucky players in the four “A” groups, he can still qualify for the playoffs even if he finishes third or her fourth.
There are no automatic spots in the “B” and “C” groups, only playoff spots are up for grabs.Get to know the nitty-gritty of how the playoffs work On the UEFA website If you want – I highly recommend it, especially if you have trouble sleeping.

preamble
The good thing about losing in sports is that you usually have a chance to make up for it. The bad thing about winning is that, annoyingly, there’s always something else to win, right?
That is undoubtedly not the mentality of Sarina Wigmann’s Euro 2022 champions, who narrowly lost out in the World Cup final against Spain last summer and now have their minds set on defending their European crown.
The Group A3 qualifying opening match against Sweden will be held tonight. potentially It ends in Basel on July 27 next year, but Wiegmann’s players have no intention of getting ahead of themselves. They are grouped with France and the Republic of Ireland alongside Sweden, and qualification is by no means set in stone, so the impending return of captain Leah Williamson is a welcome boost. Become.
Can England do it all over again? They will have to take it one step at a time and qualify one after the other, starting with Sweden. Kick-off: 8pm (BST)
